Welcome to Sanctum Borealis

We've been hosting game servers for over 15 years — from Minecraft and DayZ to ARK and Rust, and one thing has never changed: we build servers for players and fun, not for profit.

Sanctum Borealis is a 5-man monthly Rust server built around balance and fairness. 2x gather, 1x sulfur, 50% upkeep, custom loot, and quality-of-life tweaks that make the game feel better without breaking what makes Rust great. No VIP. No kits. No pay-to-win. Just a well-run server where skill and teamwork actually matter — whether you're brand new to Rust or a seasoned veteran.

What Makes Us Different

We've played on the servers that don't care. The ones where someone drops $50 and suddenly outguns everyone on day one. That's not what this is. Sanctum Borealis is run by two friends who genuinely love this game and want you to have a great time playing it.

Monthly Wipes - Fresh Start, Every Time

Every first Thursday of the month at 2 PM EST, the map resets. Whether last wipe went great or you got raided into the ground on day two , you get a clean slate. Jump in early, stake your claim, and run it back.

Actively Moderated, Always

To begin and be transparent as possible; we, the admins, play on the server.

We like to have a hands-on approach on things, to personally see and experience the server and its players and fully know our server. We feel that, if we don't at least play and test our own server, we wouldn't know if the loot feels off, if a plugin is breaking something, or if a player is ruining the experience for others.

However, there are some things we absolutely WILL NOT do and these things are: spawn items, teleport for advantage, check bases, or breach and abuse any information (what's in a base, who is where, if someone is hiding in a base, etc.) We want to be perceived and properly come across as just and fair admins so, If you ever feel something is off, please call it out or report it to one of us.

At the end of the day, we want to make this server be one of the best there is. Through refining, listening to criticisms, possible complaints, and playing on the server itself, we hope to achieve these goals. So, please, let us know how we can make the experience better and any problems that you may come across.

Nope. Never will be. We've seen what pay-to-win does to a server's community and we want no part of it. Everyone here is on the same footing.
